But I just saw Episode 3 of Star Wars, and Skywalker is the single, dumbest human being to have ever lived.
His sheer stupidity, kind of detracted from the movie for me...

His inability to seemingly process reality, and how as a Jedi, he couldn't figure out basic probability.
I suppose I just have high expectations for someone, who is supposed to be smart.
Also, I find it sad near the end, how stupidity goes out.

"Oh look, if I jump at Obi-Wan, he won't try to slice my limbs off," and why should he think that way? why would he think that someone who had been his friend for so long would maul him and leave him for dead? Is that the first thing that would go through your head? Not me. I'd think that I'd be able to jump out of the burning lava and not get mauled by someone I once considered a friend. So I don't see them as stupid. I see them as too trusting. Pardon me, the Dark Side is calling...

I don't think it's him being stupid per se, but rather him vastly overestimating his own power. It's just the teacher-student dynamic/tension carrying through as well. Obi-Wan even tells him not to try it, but he doesn't listen to him.
In the end the Master's proven right, because he had the high ground, both literally and metaphorically.
